Do-Re-Mi

The past couple of weeks, we have noticed that Barrett like to hum to himself.  Until this past weekend, we thought he was just making up songs.  This weekend, however, we came to realize that he is humming specific tunes.  And, thanks to his sister, his current tune of choice is Do-Re-Mi from the Sound of Music.  He can say "Do" very distinctly, and sometimes he makes out a "So."  All of the other words become mumbled or he just skips them altogether and hums.  The tune is distinct though.  I am pretty sure that a perfect stranger could figure out what song he has stuck in his head by listening to him.  It makes me smile to see him starting to enjoy music.  We're just going to have to teach him a few more songs so the rest of us maintain our sanity.
